Air Bosna is Airbus Industrie's first announced customer this year, committing for two A319 narrowbodies, plus two options. Deliveries are set for 2003.
Sarajevo-based Air Bosna, the national carrier of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, will operate its CFM International CFM56-5-powered A319s in a two-class, 132-seat configuration.
It serves Belgrade, Berlin, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Istanbul, Stuttgart and Zagreb with two Yakovlev Yak-42 tri-jets leased from Air Ukraine.
The airline is 51% state-owned, with Bosnia's EnergoInvest holding the rest, although the government plans to privatise Air Bosna later this year.
